.@aave's ETH holdings are now live on Strategic ETH Reserve 🦾 Very cool @fabdarice

1/ $USDC & $WETH deposits and borrowings have hit all-time highs on Aave Base. For $USDC: → Deposits reached $185M → Borrowings reached $161.48M For $WETH: → Deposits reached 96,500 WETH → Borrowings reached 86,730 WETH The recent incentive campaign brought in fresh capital and activity ↓

The most attractive place to earn yield on $USDC on Aave right now is @base. Currently averaging 5.63%, that’s: ▪️ +1.2% higher than on Optimism ▪️ +1.4% higher than on Ethereum ▪️ +1.5% higher than on Arbitrum And this doesn’t include the +1% additional APY available through Merit Program. More than $186M of $USDC is already deployed there. If you've got idle $USDC, it's time to make it work on Base.

$50B total market size on Aave Core, exactly 10 years after Ethereum launched. Reaching that on a single instance is just incredible. No lending protocol had ever done it. Until today.

New incentives are live on Avalanche 🔺 Supply $GHO and earn 13.08% APY, currently the highest yield for stablecoin lending on @avax. This includes a fixed 10% APR paid in $asAVAX, available until total deposits reach $50M — after that, the yield starts to dilute. $asAVAX rewards are claimable on the ACI website.

Aave has now reached $170M in cumulative revenue. With over $57M earned since the start of the year, Aave's 2025 revenue is already 1.44x higher than in 2024 and more than 7x higher than in 2023 at the same point in time. Over the past 90 days, daily revenue has surged by 187%. This growth is driven by strong borrowing demand, particularly in $USDC, $USDT, and $ETH. Together, borrow interest from these 3 assets on Ethereum accounted for 59.1% of total revenue generated in Q3 2025: ▪️ $ETH: 29.7% ▪️ $USDT: 18.6% ▪️ $USDC: 10.8% For the past two years, Aave has consistently captured between 60% and 80% of all revenue generated in the lending sector, and that trend shows no sign of slowing down. Powered by multiple sources, this revenue stream is not only sustainable but also reinvested strategically by the DAO through: ▪️ Service providers ▪️ $AAVE buybacks ▪️ Umbrella emissions ▪️ Merit Program These are just a few examples. The Aave DAO takes great care in allocating funds on various growth initiatives and buyback programs.

$sGHO supply just hit a new ATH at 160.75M! Today, you can earn 7.93% yield on a risk-free savings product, entirely funded by Aave’s $100M+ in annual revenue. No slashing. No cooldown period. Just $GHO yielding at 7.93%. Btw, PT on @spectra_finance lets you lock in a yield higher than the current APY (7.98%). You should also take a look at the $sGHO YT on @Pendle_fi. Maybe it is still undervalued, who knows👀 Want to explore other integrations? Check out the quoted tweet👇

With over $285M in coverage, Aave is by far the most secure lending protocol in DeFi. Umbrella shields the protocol in real time from bad debt on $ETH, $USDC, $USDT, and $GHO. Together, $ETH, $USDC, and $USDT represent 87% of total borrowings on the Core instance, which is why they were selected for Umbrella coverage. Bad debt is one of the biggest threats for any lending protocol. Without proper protection, it can completely collapse and never recover, as this kind of failure breaks trust and damages the platform’s reputation. Aave and Gearbox are the only protocols that have funds allocate for protecting users, with Umbrella being the first fully automate system built by @bgdlabs. Its coverage is 2.5x larger than the combined treasuries of Morpho and Euler. No other protocol comes close to this level of protection. And the best part? It is fully funded by over $100M in real, organic protocol revenue, with an annual budget of $9.1M. In return, users who deposit earn juicy yields. For example, stkaUSDT is currently yielding 9.9%.

1/ USDC deposits and borrowings have recently hit all-time highs on Aave Core. This surge is directly increasing revenue from USDC borrow interest: ▪️ +14% over the last 7 days ▪️ +36.5% over the last 30 days ▪️ +85% over the last 90 days Let’s take a look at what’s driving this — and share a bit of alpha with you 👇
